-TDallas News
1t may be remarked in passing on this
evidence of the News, desire for q n even
symmetrical development, that Dallas
never found it necessary to quarantine
against Lickskillet. 1t may also be sd-
ded that the st. Louis, Arkansas and
Texas Railroad did not leave Dallas four
teen miles of the route selected to reach
the splendid connections to be had at
Lickskillet. The even symmetrical de-
veloper may find enjoyment in ridcule of
Fort Worth, but this town has grown
great despite Dallas ridicule.

COMMENTING on the stock market,
Henry Clews & Co., in their circular Of
May IS, say:
As for some weeks past, the stock market
still exhibits the contradictory combination of
conditions unpreCedentedly favorable to the
intrin sic value of securities with a timid and
spiritless state of investment and speculation.
Without needlessly reiterating the details of
the numerous factors favorable to the appreci
alton of stocks, 1t may be quite safely affirmed
that, under ordinary circumstances, the same
conditions would have carried up prices 10 to
10 per cent above their present level.
The sole obvious cause of this failure of
prices to follow the natural d. lift is the uncer-
tainty about the course of the money market
after July, growing out of the neglect of Con
gress to equallze the income and expenditures
OF the government; which is steadily bringing
about dangerous absorption of the idle money
IN the Federal Treasury.
About one thing there can be no doubt: That
there is reason enough for apprehension on
this account, unless we can have some sub
stantial assurance that the government will
promptly do everything within its power to
avert the impending danger, The fact for the
consideration of the administration is this
That whilst the country at large is in the midst
of an era Of prosperity unparalleled for It's ex-
tent and solidty, yet, such is the fiscal position
of the government that this prosperity itself is
made the means of throttling business and in
Wiling the disasters of q commercial and fnan-
cial collapse; for increased prosperity means
Increased revenues, and increased revenues
means the artificial withdrawal OF the instru-
ment by which business is transacted.

d NEW DISCOVERY.

The Indianapolis News has made dis
covery which is ali its own. Referring to
the fact that the greater part of the i'm
migration coming to this country goes to
the territories, the News says:
OF the enormous immigration which this
country is having nOw-the greatest In its
history-Iess than per cent. goes to he
south. Why? An answer may be found in
the report from Rockville, Mo-, recently,
Of an outrage by man upon woman.
He Ewas arrested, and the woman identified
him, although she had been chlOroformed
and certainly her evidence needed careful
sitting. The man was arraiQned in court and
had just been held in $4,000 bail when two OF
the brothers of the woman Otis supposedly shot
the man dead This Is why no more of the in
flow of people go to the south, who would live
in land where the most sacred forms of law
the most powerful agents of justice cannot pro
tect against individual passion. The south has
got to become civilized before 1t will become
populous.
1t may appear to the News that this
summary manner of dealing with rapist
is calculated to keep out immigration, and
perhaps it does. Those people who de-
sire to come south to outrage women can
take to themselves the full benefit of the
News discovery. While the south has as
much respect for law as any other sec
ton of the country, it is part of the
unwritten law Of the south that the fair
names and virtue of her women shall be
protected at all hazards. Shooting down
8 rapist is considered a crime in the
south, but one of those crimes which
rise to heaven about as quickly as some
of the tagging virtues of cur cold-blooded
northern brethren. II immigrants can
not respect women they need not come
south-the territories are welcome to
them

THE TOWN AND THE RAIL WAY.

THE TOWN AND THE RAIL WAY.
Once there was Town that wanted 8
Railroad, and the Town sent Special
Car with sixteen valiant Men to offer
more than q Hundred Thousand Dollars
for the Railroad. The valiant Men were
all Colonies and Majahs and Generals,
and in the Special Car they carried
Spice and Myrrh and Old 0tard and
High Old Wines, and the valiant Men,
who were all Colonies and Msjahs and
Generals, strove hard and hung around
and prayed nightly at Texarkana for
the Railroad which they said was
just the one thing needful. And one Of
the valiant Men, who WAS Colonel, fol-
lowed the Magnates around even unto
Tyler, beseeching for the Railroad. But
the Railroad selected q line that was four
teen miles north of where the valiant Men
in the Special Car wanted it to run, and
now the Town and the valiant Men call
the Railroad Beggar, and say it,is Sour
Grapes, anyhow.

THE Globe-Democrat, with Its usual intense
fairness, states that although George W. Gable
had proven his devotion to the south by an
honorable record in the Confederate army, he
has been forced to cancel lecturing engage
ment in South Carolina because q short while
ago he found 1t necessary to point out the anti
African trend to southern legislation. The
only thing the matter with this pretty state
ment is that southern legislation is not adverse
to the negro. The south, while not able to do
much, is doing it's best for the colored race.
The records of any Legislature below Mason
and DiXon's line, will prove this. And Mr..
Gable knew that he was lying when he penned
his scuuilous lines for the Century's money
- San Antonio Express.
The trouble with all such newspapers as
the GlObe-Democrat is that the southern
white man refuses to be q Republican.
Such papers would care precious little for
the negro if the white men would turn
the south over to protection and monop-
oily and monometelism. 1t is Democracy
such papers hate, not the negro that they
love-sRve as an instrument.

THE ANNIVERSARY.
How the President and bis Wife Spent

SARANAc INN, n. Y, June 2.-The an
niversary of the wedding day of President
and Mrs. Cleveland dswned beautiful at
Saranac. When Mrs. Cleveland sat down
to breakfast she found little cluster OF
four-leaved clovers at her place. She
and the President were heartily congrat-
ulated upon their anniversary and were
wished all manner of happiness and
good luck. At 10 O'Clock, after smearing
their faces literally with fly ointment the
President, Mrs. Cleveland and Dave
Cronk went of in boat, Colonel and
Mrs. Lamont and McCsffrey in an other,
and DR.. and Mrs. Rosmon in third, to
spend the day al Hollis Pond, about three
miles distant. They took their lunches,
and unless the flies and mosquitoes
prove too annoying they will re-
main all day. When they
return the cottage of the President will
probably be decorated to recall to its oc-
cupants the memory of the ceremony that
took place in the blue room of the White
House just year ago.

Il
When it becomes apparent that any
enterprise can be made successful, and
when such enterprise is east y within the
reach of any community, it goes without
saying that the sooner such enterprise is
| established the better it is for the COM
munity. All the towns in Texas are
awake to the necessity of action, and of
them there are few that will
become great cities. Those towns
which aspire to be great cities should not
only work, but work fast, for there will
come time when no town can work with

Fort Worth has never been idle, it is

Campo, who has Just arrived from
Nacosari states that authentic news
has reached Opusura that at the time of

in Chihuahua on the side of the Sierra

to the intense heat, been able to approach
nearer than three miles. A mass of
molten lava has kept pouring down the
mountain side, and is estimated to ex-
tend fully ten miles from the center of
the volcano. Volumes of smoke BY day
and red glare by night from the burning
mountains are visible for long distance.
Governor Torres of Sonora has directed
